'Shit.' While Ambrosia was safe from the acid by virtue of being behind the creature's mouth, she was still in danger of falling into the growing void as the acid traveled up the webbing and back toward her as well. 'What do I do?'
Rather than wasting time thinking and planning, Ambrosia went off instinct and backed up as quickly as she could, putting distance between her and the broodmother. This put the creature in between her and Thel which... well, better him than her.
'This is a tunnel. There has to be somewhere it continues.' Glancing back at Thel and the spider, Ambrosia would scamper back further into the cavern, trying to put more distance between her and the broodmother. Her eyes frantically scanned the walls, looking for any sort of indent that might indicate a blocked tunnel. But she found nothing. 'Maybe if I...'
"HEY!" Ambrosia turned around, shouting out the man who's name she actually never bothered to learn. She reached both hands out, using the Force to try and thwart whatever the broodmother was attempting to do currently, whether that be spraying or attacking the other Sith. She would need his help for this. "BURN THE WEB!"
They would have very little time to spot and escape into any tunnels that revealed themselves, but it was their only shot. They couldn't turn back now, not with the web in that direction already melted away. Hopefully, too, the fire would deal with their enemy in the same way it wanted to deal with them.
Hopefully, he knew how to use pyrokinesis.
roll to find easy escape: 5/20

The rumbling of the cave shook the walls of the cavern. It made Tempest's journey across the chasm easy, but it made the next part much more difficult.
After Tempest crossed the chasm, she would step onto a solid plateau of stone. Where before there had been nothing but an empty cavern that followed the stone plateau path to the door, stepping onto that plateau was like breaking an illusion. Tempest would blink, and suddenly the once-empty cavern was now filled with bioluminescent plants and old, crumbling ruins. The door from before was no longer visible, but she might still get the feeling that her journey forward would lead her to it.
Something else she would note immediately - the rumbling from the moving of the rock had never really stopped. As she started forward, presumably following the ancient path before her, a distant but bone-chilling roar would echo through the blue-hued cavern.
Something had woken up.
